Hospice Veterinarians database, you can contact

cannot find a veterinarian to help you, we will place you in contact with
one of our board or advisory board veterinarians, who will either consult
with you directly or ask to network with your own animal health care
practitioner. Please do not send us an email if you are in an emergency
situationócall us instead. Email should be reserved to request informational
packets or copies of articles about The NHFP and for all other non-urgent

often take from 30 minutes to 1 hour, you may ask us to call you back if
long-distance telephone charges are a concern for you.
The NHFP has a special
telephone connection plan that is effective 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
within the United States, regardless of location. There is no charge to the
public for telephone consultations.
